  • How to waste a G400...

    Look at Thresh's <A HREF="http://www.firingsquad.com" target="_blank">FiringSquad</A> Q3 optimisation article. An quote:

    "Some may say the whole point of Q3 is the purty graphics, but here at FiringSquad, Q3's all about the gameplay. How else are we supposed to enjoy the networking code if our systems keep on chunking up on us because of all the nice textures and 32-bit colors?"

    and...

    "The game'll be ugly, but everyone knows it's all about the speed."

    Ummm, what did I want that g400 for again?

    Ya, I know a guy who plays Q3 with nearly all features disabled: no dynamic lighting, no bullet holes, low quality textures, low resolution (512x384), and gamma correction at the maximum setting... His Quake looks like shit! But he says it's faster. I'm sure he would play in wireframe mode if it was available !!!
